Does anyone recognise these power supplies? They're cheap AliExpress led drivers and I want to change its output voltage to around 22V from 12V. I've read that the way to do this is to adjust the REF voltage on the IC that controls it. It's a KA3845 but I don't understand where that reference voltage is regulated. One voltage is feedback from the output where then other should be a reference.
What would be the best way to approach this? I can't find any schematics on these boards unfortunately.
Thanks.
As others have said, increasing the output by 5/6 is unrealistic. And even it would work, it'd only be for a short while. Best case is that it works and you're home and awake when it catches fire.
Better buy a dedicated powersupply. How expensive something is, is in the eye of the beholder, but it is worth it. Most of the ones on this list can be adjusted 10 or 15% and that should get you there from 24V. And they're actually meant to do it. https://dk.rs-online.com/web/c/stromforsyninger-og-transformere/stromforsyninger/switch-mode-stromforsyninger-smps/?pn=1&rpp=100&sortBy=P_breakPrice1&sortType=ASC&applied-dimensions=4294965650,4290297838,4291523693,4294965001,4293335399,4293589165,4294472088,4294478231,4294273800
